Zhao Ju and Chen Zhen looked at each other for two breaths, and then felt that the ministers in the palace and the people of Wu Di were all looking at the two of them, although they were angry in their hearts that Chen Zhen did not focus on the overall situation, but after all, he still barely persevered.

After all, the life and death of the king of Chu are unknown, and Chen Zhen is only nominally an assassin of Shi Ling, and he knows about the affairs of Beiya, although everyone knows about it, but the king of Chu is not public after all, and he has no power to call it.

Thinking about it, Zhao Ju snorted coldly in his heart, and said angrily: "Well, since the assassination of Shi Ling is unwilling to investigate the assassination of the King of Chu, then please Zuo Yin and..."

Saying that, Zhao Ju glanced around, then looked at Qu Zhi and said, "Doctor Sanlu, the assassination of the king, please also ask the doctor and Zuo Yin to find out." ”

Qu Shu looked at Zhao Ju, then looked at the King of Chu on the ground, and then nodded: "No, please rest assured that Zhuguo." ”

Seeing that Qu Zhi agreed, Zhao Ju immediately ordered loudly: "Pass the order, and the defenders outside the city will immediately enter a state of combat readiness and wait for the military order." ”

"No."

At this time, the accompanying imperial physician rushed over, saw the king of Chu fall to the ground, and immediately asked the king of Chu to be carried away.

And Chen Zhen and the others were directly guarding the side of King Chu and left.

It wasn't until the figure of the King of Chu disappeared outside the hall that Zhao Ju turned his head to look at the people of Wu Di, his cold gaze swept over everyone one by one, and when he saw that no one dared to look at him, he said: "Everyone, now that the king has been assassinated, the situation is serious, in order to investigate this matter clearly, I also ask the monarchs to stay in the palace temporarily and assist Zuo Yin in the investigation." Please rest assured for the time being, the great king will never wronged a good person, as long as it is found that the monarchs have nothing to do with this matter, they can immediately immediately go to the palace. ”

"What did Zhu Guo say?" As soon as Zhaoju's voice fell, Wuhou Jixin immediately stepped forward and responded: "The king was assassinated, and he can't be replaced by Xia hate, in order to find out the real murderer, let alone stay in the mansion in Xia, even if he wants to cooperate with Zuo Yin's investigation in Xia Quanfu, that is also how it should be." ”

As he spoke, Ji Xin's eyes glanced at Zhang Yi, who was caught by the guards on his side, and a wave of joy surged from his heart.

Zhang Yi is finished, whether he knows about this matter or not, he is finished.

After Zhang Yi's death, in the entire Wu land, who else can compare with him, Wu Hou?

Thinking about it, Ji Xin sighed slightly, if it was not Song Meiren who just made a move, but his daughter Ji Ying, it would be perfect.

It's a pity that Ji Ying was scared stupid just now, and she didn't react until she was taken away by the maid.

At this time, after Ji Xin, the Marquis of Wu, expressed his position, the rest of Wu Di echoed one after another:

"Yes, what Wu Hou said is that we will definitely do our best to assist Zuo Yin in investigating this matter."

"In front of the public, he openly assassinated the king, this kind of heinous crime, no one should be spared."

"That's why it's not a pity that all those connected should die, and all of them should be destroyed."

“···”

After everyone expressed their attitudes, Zhao Ju asked everyone to settle in the palace, and then went to the palace of the king of Chu.

Entering the dormitory, crossing the hall, and arriving at the room of the King of Chu, Zhao Ju was stunned suddenly, but saw that the King of Chu was sitting on the bed, the imperial physician was bandaging the wounds of the King of Chu, and the other ministers who followed were standing silently on both sides.

Xiong Huai sat on the edge of the bed, saw Zhao Ju come in, and was about to show a smiling face, but unexpectedly pulled the wound, the corners of his mouth twitched, and his face immediately distorted, slowing down, until the stinging pain calmed down, and then he spoke: "Zhuguo, you are here, fortunately Zhuguo made a move today, otherwise the widow will be more auspicious!" ”

When Zhao Ju heard this, he immediately bowed and said: "The body of the king is ten thousand gold, and he has the protection of heaven, even if he has no ministers, he will definitely be safe and sound." ”

As he spoke, he straightened up, and seeing that King Chu's face was a little pale, he immediately asked, "King, I don't know how the injury is?" ”

"It's okay!" Xiong Huai said in a cold tone: "Fortunately, Song Meiren pushed the widow and avoided the vital point, but she only suffered some skin trauma, and she can be healed in a few days after cultivation." ”

Zhao Ju immediately breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and then saw that the other people's faces were all the same, and it seemed that they had known about this for a long time.

Thinking about it, Zhao Ju was suddenly stunned, remembering that the king of Chu had just fainted in the main hall.

Since the king of Chu only suffered some skin injuries, the fainting thing must be fake.

Thinking of this, Zhao Ju's pupils shrank, and he saluted: "King, this time Wu Ren assassinated, the minister's heart was indignant, I don't know what the king wants to do, and the minister is willing to serve the work of dogs and horses." ”

When Xiong Huai heard this, he smiled coldly, didn't want to pull the wound again, immediately gritted his teeth, his face couldn't help but be a little distorted, paused, relieved himself, and then said calmly: "Originally, the widow came to Jiangdong with the intention of getting close to the nobles of Wuyue, and he didn't mean to kill.

Even those guys who still resented the Chu State in their hearts, the widow had no intention of killing. I don't want to, the widow just finished sacrificing Taibo Jizi, and under heavy protection, he was assassinated by the Wu people in the deep palace.

It seems... If the widow does not wash the blood of Jiangdong once, the people of Jiangdong do not know the majesty of the widow. ”

As he spoke, Xiong Huai glanced at the Shangguan doctor on the side, and then said, "Xianqing, please take a look at the list that the widow just handed over to you." ”

"Yui!"

Doctor Shangguan immediately took out a silk book and handed it to Zhaoju.

Zhao Ju hesitantly took the list, opened it, and saw that the silk book was densely filled with people's names, and their identities were marked, all of them were nobles and heroes in the land of Wu Yue.

After reading it, Zhao Ju bowed and said, "What does the king mean?" ”

Xiong Huai responded: "According to the map, the widow wants to ask Zhuguo to make a move, select half of the people from this list, and destroy the door directly." As for the other half of the people, they were all arrested and raided, and then distributed to Dongting to reclaim the wasteland. ”

Zhao Ju was stunned, and once again took a general look at the silk book in his hand, there are really a lot of people on it, if half of the people are wiped out, I am afraid that tens of thousands of people will be killed.

Thinking about it, Zhao Ju swallowed his saliva, then looked at King Chu cautiously and asked, "Dare to ask the king, how do these people choose, who should destroy the family, and who should copy the family and distribute it?" ”

Xiong Huai said calmly: "Just pick, anyway, they are all people who are dissatisfied with my Chu State, and it is not a pity to die." ”

As he spoke, seeing Zhao Ju looking at it hesitantly, Xiong Huai explained: "The list in the hands of Zhu Guo is the group of people who need to be relocated when the widow said when he was in Yingdu.

But now, when the widow has encountered an assassin, the matter cannot be counted like this. Although it is not known which of these people were involved, the assassination had nothing to do with it anyway. So, let's kill half of it. If they kill wrongly, their fate is not good, and if they are not killed, that is, they are innocent of death. ”

When Zhao Ju heard this, he saw the indignation on the face of the King of Chu, and knew that the King of Chu still had resentment in his heart at this moment, so he immediately nodded and responded: "Please rest assured, the minister will deal with it." ”

Xiong Huai bowed slightly, and after Zhao Ju left, he looked at Chen Zhen and said: "Assassin Shi Ling, the spies who know Beiya immediately walked out and kept an eye on the various places in Jiangdong. ”

"Yui." Chen Zhen immediately replied.

"Also, regarding the assassin, the assassin Shiling also has to find out to the widow, who are involved, and the widow must find out this matter clearly, and he can't just be stabbed in such an unknown way."

"Please rest assured, the minister will go and investigate." At this moment, knowing that the King of Chu was fine, Chen Zhen did not refuse, and directly gave up his hand, and then turned around and left.

Then, Xiong Huai knocked his head and looked at Doctor Shangguan and said, "Xianqing, immediately send a message to Ling Yin and the border generals, tell them that they are outnumbered, and let them prepare for the invasion of various countries because of the turmoil in Jiangdong." ”

"Yui!" Doctor Shangguan nodded in response to this, and then quickly turned around and left.
